Elvenesse, it is! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

A collective term which seems to refer to all the lands of the Elves, both west and east of the Great Sea.

Your turn!

Well, the answer to the first one appeared in the Hobbit, and was disliked by many.

The second may be found in Gondor. It is a place name.

For Goodness' Sake, people! Where is your sense of sportsman(or woman)ship? It isn't all that hard!
C'mon, guess!

Another clue: The first one is a weapon, and the second is in Minas Tirith.
